A Man Worthy of Your Contempt

State rep James Fagan, D-MA, explaining his principled obligation as a defense trial lawyer to ruin your daughter's life on the stand because Jessica's Law, a law that would mandate the "draconian" penalty of a 20 year sentence for a child rapist, well this would require him to "rip them apart"... ruin the rest of their lives... make them vomit over it at age 8, become 12 year old insomniacs... and suffer nightmares and ruined relationships for the rest of their lives.

This law would compel him to inflict that pain on a child, in defense of his client. See? He'd have to be even tougher in court. If it weren't for this law, well he could lighten up.

It would be the state, "forcing" him to turn the amp to eleven.

Words fail. Special place in hell for you pal.

UPDATE: DrewM makes a pretty good point in the comments; what kind of retard defense attorney is going to win over a jury by ripping into a child on the witness stand?

The guy's still a dick, but he's just bloviating on the floor with misdirectional bullshit to try to kill the bill.
